Microorganisms could play an important role in adaptation strategies and increase of tolerance to abiotic stresses in agricultural plants. Plant-growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) mitigate most effectively the impact of abiotic stresses (drought, low temperature, salinity, metal toxicity, and high temperatures) on plants through the production of exopolysaccharates and biofilm formation. PGP...

During the last few years, the analysis of microbial diversity in various habitats greatly increased our knowledge on the kingdom Archaea. At the same time, we became aware of the multiple ways in which Archaea may interact with each other and with organisms of other kingdoms. The large group of euryarchaeal methanogens and their methane oxidizing relatives, in particular, take part in essentia...

In arid regions, starchy agricultural products such as wheat and rice provide essential carbohydrates, minerals, fibers vitamins. However, drought, desiccation, high salinity, potentially toxic metals hydrocarbon accumulation are among the most notable stresses affecting soil quality cereal production in environments. Certain bacteria, referred to Plant Growth-Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR), co...

Termites play a key role in the global carbon cycle as decomposers. Their ability to thrive solely on dead plant matter is chiefly attributable to the activities of gut microbes, which comprise protists, bacteria, and archaea. Although the majority of the gut microbes are as yet unculturable, molecular analyses have gradually been revealing their diversity and symbiotic mechanisms. Culture-inde...

Microbial symbiotic communities of marine macro-organisms carry functional metabolic profiles different to the ones found terrestrially and within surrounding marine environments. These symbiotic bacteria have increasingly been a focus of microbiologists working in marine environments due to a wide array of reported bioactive compounds of therapeutic importance resulting in various patent regis...

With the development of life and industry, nutrients in sewage increased gradually. The emerging symbiotic system algal bacteria has remarkable effect removing such as nitrogen phosphorus. In this paper, influence phosphorus on bacteria-algal consortia absorption mechanism by interaction were analyzed, a variety methods for studying summarized, mainly using isotope tracer technology to study re...
